Hi Jerad, Since we are using the data table extended library and its filtering option where backend ajax option is enabled.We don't have the access to perform the suggestion you have provided. Which is "if this is causing any issue for back-end processing. We should handle it from the back-end or* before we make the back-end cal*l".
Handling the css selectors which is appended from one particular UI library from a published backend API is not the best practise to follow. Sending css selectors to a backend api via the library is not the advisable either. We should address this and enable the backend filtering without the "^", "$" or any css and frontend related characters/selectors from the data table extended library. Thanks and Regards.
